Song Lyrics


O Church, Arise
by Joel Buckner

Album: Songs of Faith - Deluxe


Verse 1
O church arise
And put your armor on
Hear the call
Of Christ our captain
For now the weak
Can say that they are strong
In the strength
That God has given

Chorus 1
With shield of faith
And belt of truth
We'll stand against
The devil's lies
An army bold
Whose battle cry is Love
Reaching out
To those in darkness

Verse 2
Our call to war
To love the captive soul
But to rage against the captor
And with the sword
That makes the wounded whole
We will fight with faith and valor

Chorus 2
When faced with trials
On ev'ry side
We know the outcome is secure
And Christ will have
The prize for which He died
An inheritance of nations

Verse 3
Come see the cross
Where love and mercy meet
As the Son of God is stricken
Then see His foes lie crushed
Beneath His feet
For the Conqueror has risen

Chorus 3
And as the stone is rolled away
And Christ emerges
From the grave
This vict'ry march
Continues till the day
Ev'ry eye and heart
Shall see Him

Verse 4
So Spirit come
Put faith in ev'ry stride
Give grace for ev'ry hurdle
That we may run
With faith to win the prize
Of a servant good and faithful

Chorus 4
As saints of old still line the way
Retelling triumphs of His grace
We hear their calls
And hunger for the day
When with Christ
We stand in glory
